I am on Fedora Workstation 38 on GNOME Wayland, using a cyberpower pc with an
AMD graphics card & cpu. Whenever I try to launch Team Fortress 2, it crashes
the moment the actual game’s executable is loaded (hl2_linux). The problem
doesn’t seem to be related to graphics (I already used the -soft, -safe, -sw,
-dx11, and -dx12 options, still didn’t work), especially since the game’s window
doesn’t show up. I also tried rebooting multiple times, didn’t work, same with
directly launching the game. Proton isn’t an option, because A: On my machine,
it runs at half speed for some reason, and B: Even then, TF2 doesn’t want you to
use Proton, it wants you to use the native linux version. (It doesn’t let you
join online games if you’re using proton) Also, no saying “change
hardware/distro” as the solution, please.
not sure about the problem, but I do know with my own fedora there is an issue with some audio encoding, once you fix your main issue and find the audio problem (affects voicelines and music) let me know and Ill try to find the solution again for you
I switched to using the steam flatpak for my games, and it fixed the “not starting” issue. And yes, the voice commands aren’t working. The music is working, but no voicelines.
yea should be a mp3 decoding thing https://www.reddit.com/r/linux_gaming/comments/hb7kh9/no_music_in_halflife_2_on_fedora_32/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=1 probably search for sellinux or somthing
